Kalutara Town Club

Kalutara Town Club are a first-class cricket team based in Kalutara, Sri Lanka. They played one season of first-class cricket, in the 1996–97 Saravanamuttu Trophy. They had previously been the inaugural winner of the Daily News Trophy in 1938 in the days before it had first-class status. They currently play in Tier B of the Premier Trophy.

They played 13 first-class matches in 1996–97, losing 10 and drawing three, and finished last. Their captain was Pathmanath Perera, who hit the team's highest score, 133, against Sebastianites Cricket and Athletic Club,[1] and took the best bowling figures, 6 for 41, against Panadura Sports Club.[2]

Since that season Kalutara Town Club competed at the next level below first-class before returning to the Premier Trophy in 2016. Their home ground is now Surrey Village Cricket Ground in Maggona, not far from Kalutara.
